Hello eveyone
Can someone please explain to me what does bits cross referencing mean in rs logis 5000? Thanks

Well, cross-referencing a tag in RLogix 5000 tells you where the tag is being used in the program.

[jkerekes]

Did you look at the help files in the program? What about the manual for 5000? There may be a Youtube video on the subject also.

The Cross Reference function lets you search your entire project and find every occurrence of the selected element address. You can perform this function in either the online or offline state. Depending on the element you have selected, the Cross Reference view can contain up to three separate tabs for three different kinds of references. You can view cross reference information by the following.

Tag

Tag hierarchy

Note that you can only cross reference one item at a time.

The information displayed in each tab is read-only. For more information on the type of information contained in each of these tabs, refer to the Related Topics at the bottom of this page.

No matter which tab you are on, a field at the top of the cross reference view displays the type, name, and scope of the component, as well as Show menu, which lets you choose the columns of information you want to appear on each respective tab.
